Water on Comet 67p Is like Nothing on Earth

Water on Comet 67p Is like Nothing on Earth

Finding water on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko comes as no surprise. Comets have been known to carry large patches of ice on them. What does come as a surprise, however, is the general makeup of this water. It is a finding that turns previously held beliefs on their head. The makeup of the water found on comet 67p is unlike anything found on Earth, containing about three times more deuterium, a heavy form of hydrogen. Why is this significant? For a long time scientists

Bumpty Bump Bump From Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko

One more first for the Rosetta mission… sounds of Philae landing on Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko. ESA The SESAME-CASSE instrument sensors on the feet of the Philae lander recorded the sound at the moment of contact with Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko.

LATEST PHOTOS FROM Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko

European Space Agency – ESA This unusual view takes a side-on look down the smaller lobe of Comet 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko and onto the smoother terrain of the ‘neck’ region. In the background, cliffs of the comet’s large lobe rise from the shadows, adding to the dramatic feel to this image. This single-frame NAVCAM image measures 1024 x 1024 pixels. It was captured from a distance of 9.8 km from the centre of the comet (7.8 km from the surface) at 22:04 GMT on 23 October 20

Rosetta Probe to Land on Comet Tomorrow

Tomorrow, Nov. 12, may mark the first time humans have soft-landed on a comet. If this is successful it will be courtesy of The European Space Agency’s Rosetta spacecraft which is currently orbiting Comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko as it speeds through space. Rosetta will release a lander, called Philae, down to the comet’s surface tomorrow while three different space-focused organizations host Rosetta webcasts for all to watch. The plan is for Rosetta to release its lander
